He has showed he's committed to the team, and he's a good guy. He doesn't want it to be about him. He wants it to be about the team.
We're definitely going to be running our tails off because of today. We just got outplayed. They really dominated us.
We're changing so many things, it's causing confusion for other teams. In the past, it's always been so simple. Now we're making offenses think a little bit. They don't know where I'm going to be.
We practiced horribly this week. We had it coming. We had some of our worst practices of the year this week and we got outplayed today because of it.
I promise that once we get clicking on defense we are going to be real good. We were off today and we weren't very good.
I'm going to be a jerk, but I don't care. I didn't say anything all week. We let guys slide and got too comfortable. We've got to work harder and answer on game days.
I know that we are going to be a lot better when the Jets come down and play us and they will be too, but hopefully we get even better than them.
I'm just proud of the guys, because when we were 3-7, we could have shut it down. And guys kept fighting.
I guess you could say things have gone our way.
No back in the league gives me as much trouble, ... I'm short, and I can get leverage on the backs, but not Henry. I can't get under him. And he runs so hard. I hate trying to tackle him.
Don't even try to type him. It's a waste of time. He'll never repeat tendencies.
It might have been 70 percent. Probably not that much, but it was a lot.
That just shows how much depth they've got. They don't miss a beat when the starters are out of the game.
They did a little fast-tempo offense and were moving guys in and out. You have to be able to get the calls right even when they do that. A couple times we missed communication and that starts with me. We all have to be on the same page.
